Course Objective

With this proposed course, it is aimed to explain to DEU Industrial Engineering Department students how data, which has an extremely important place in engineering science and real life problems, can be used and how information can be produced from data, using data mining and machine learning methods. With this course, our students will be given basic information about data mining methods and in-class applications will be made with the help of the free data mining software Weka. Within the scope of the course, studies will be made on data mining and machine learning approaches, which are the main sub-titles of artificial intelligence.

Learning Outcomes of the Course Unit

1   Being able to understand and apply data mining approaches.
2   Ability to filter and visualize data.
3   Ability to apply basic data mining techniques with Weka.
4   Understanding and applying machine learning.
5   Ability to use basic data mining and machine learning algorithms.
6   Obtaining information on legal liability and ethics in data mining approaches.

Planned Learning Activities and Teaching Methods

The topics covered in the course will be transferred to the students through computer-based applications, sample problem solutions and presentations on the board and students will be expected to perform these applications. The course will involve intensive coding. In addition, all the techniques described in this course will be brought together and used.
